ok, let’s work on a £600 budget. If the Olympics works out well and i get some decent work from it i may be able to get myself in a position to pay a bit more.
Right in the market for a new PC too Budget upto £600. (I’ve not Lord Von Phartsburys access to limitless cash that these city banker types have)
So I will lay down the gauntlet 😉
System specs should be based on;
Intel i5 Ivybridge 3570K which if i remember correctly is the equivalent to Sandybridge i5 2500K?
Z77 Mobo (preferably ASUS)
8Gb Memory
Ghaphics Card : Nvidia
2TB HDD
64/120GB SSD
Case
PSU 650W modular if possible

ParticipantLaaaaaammmmmbeerrrrrtttt!
You live!
Do you a spec later, should be doable.
That said, Bumsticker knows his stuff too and will likely come up with a better spec. We will make it a competition 🙂
